I have used them on plenty of occasions.. I really like the lowers the best. I have had the best luck simply welding the seams in the upper torque box and haven't had any trouble there. I think this is a mod that there is no harm in doing. Install is pretty straight forward, the directions they give you are easy to understand, just plan on investing several hours of your time to do it right!

So on a street car, you wouldn't go thru the added work to install the uppers. I am looking at doing this mod soon on my 86 vert. - probably when I get the subs welded in. I haven't really researched any brands yet but I will take a look at the Wild Rides parts.

Any other recommendations on suppliers for this mod?

I would just weld the uppers. I have used wild rides and umi lower kits and both have worked well for me. I can't speak for the other kits since I have not used them.
